    Snake River Island Hop 50K

    Finished my second 50K last weekend at the Innagural Snake River Island Hop. I was planning on the 100K, but took the 50K finish instead due to time limits. I'll try to put together a race report at some point.

    Resoling softstar dash runamoc

    I wore through the vibram sole of my softstar dash runamocs. Has anyone ever tried to resole these or anything similar? It seems like it would be pretty simple to buy a piece of vibram soling, cut it out, and glue it on. What I'm not sure about is how to remove the worn sole. I contacted...

    Merrell Dash Glove, different sized feet.

    So my wife, who is totally opposed to minimal shoes for herself tried on a pair of Dash Gloves today, and loved them and now wants a pair. The problem with this is that she fits in an 8 with one foot and an 8 1/2 with the other foot, and if she uses the 8 1/2 on the small foot, she has to have...

    Best Trail running footwear (rock protection)

    I'm trying to get ideas on what footwear to try next. I am looking for something that will offer decent rock protection while still being very minimal. I am leaning towards the Trail Gloves, and wondering how the Luna Leadvilles compare, and any other options.

    Tri City Half Marathon

    My first half-marathon. I had been planning to run barefoot, but have been focusing on trails lately in preparation for an upcoming 50K. The trails I have been running have lots of sharp gravel that I am not ready for yet, so I’ve been wearing my Luna sandals. Because of the lack of recent...

    50K Trail footwear choice (Badger Mountain Challenge, Richland, WA)

    So, I've pretty much decided that in preperation for my first marathon at the end of april, I'm going to run a 50K ultra at the end of March... My feet won't be in good enough shape to run the whole thing barefoot (though I may try some of it). The trails are mostly fairly loose dirt and...

    Should I use footwear in a 5K?

    I'm running a 5K this weekend, which will be my first since taking up barefoot running. I ran this one last year, and the last 1/4 mile or so is dirt and gravel. I'm trying to decide if I should wear anything or not. I'm perfectly comfortable running barefoot on the asphalt that most of the...
